Healthy Toys this Holiday Season


Dangerous chemicals like lead and arsenic are not healthy for anyone, especially for developing children. Yet, when the Ecology Center, a Michigan-based nonprofit, tested over 1,500 popular children's toys for lead, cadmium, arsenic, PVC and other harmful chemicals, they found that one in three toys tested were found to contain "medium" or "high" levels of chemicals of concern.

Let's make sure the toys that are purchased this season are safe and healthy for our children. Please take a look at the information that MomsRising has collected to help clarify and to share the message with others.
